    Riding while hydrating

    Life, Published on 31/03/2015

    » One of my coaching clients, Meaw, went for a relaxing, long Sunday bike ride outside after a hard stressful week at work. She headed out to Ayutthaya for a 70km ride with her one bottle of water, but at about 40km she suddenly felt as if she had no energy, was dizzy, couldn't focus, wanted to vomit and started to cramp. She messaged me and asked what was wrong with her, I told her she most likely had heat exhaustion or heat stroke and should go to a shop with some air-con, sit down, drink some water, eat a banana then message me again for a second consultation.

He can also mimic horns, ambulances and police cars, disco beats and synth drums, and the sound of heavy traffic. But his tour de force, which I've written about before, is the sound of a train journey, complete with traffic crossings and the calls of barbecue chicken vendors.
